Are you tired of waking up to the insistent buzz of your Fitbit Inspire 2 alarm, even when you’ve already snoozed it multiple times? We’ve all been there. The good news is, turning off your Fitbit Inspire 2 alarm is a simple process. This guide will walk you through the steps, whether you want to disable the alarm temporarily or permanently.
Understanding Your Fitbit Inspire 2 Alarm
Before we jump into the steps, it’s important to understand the different ways your Fitbit Inspire 2 can wake you up. There are two primary methods:
- The built-in alarm: This is a standard alarm that you set within the Fitbit app. It can be customized with a specific time and even a recurring schedule.
- Smart Wake: This is a more advanced feature that uses your sleep data to wake you up during your lightest sleep stage.
Knowing which type of alarm you want to turn off will determine the steps you need to take.
Turning Off the Built-in Alarm
The built-in alarm is the most common type of alarm used on the Fitbit Inspire 2. Here’s how to turn it off:
1. Open the Fitbit app: Launch the Fitbit app on your smartphone.
2. Navigate to your device: Tap on your profile picture in the top left corner, then select your Fitbit Inspire 2 from the list of devices.
3. Go to Alarms: In the device settings, you’ll find an option labeled “Alarms.” Tap on it.
4. Select the alarm: You’ll see a list of your active alarms. Tap on the alarm you want to turn off.
5. Toggle off the alarm: In the alarm details, you’ll see a toggle switch next to “Alarm On.” Simply slide the toggle to the “Off” position.
That’s it! Your alarm is now disabled. You can repeat these steps for any other alarms you want to turn off.
Disabling Smart Wake
Smart Wake is a handy feature, but it might not be for everyone. Here’s how to disable it:
1. Open the Fitbit app: Launch the Fitbit app on your smartphone.
2. Navigate to your device: Tap on your profile picture in the top left corner, then select your Fitbit Inspire 2 from the list of devices.
3. Go to Advanced Settings: In the device settings, find the “Advanced Settings” option.
4. Toggle off Smart Wake: You’ll see a toggle switch for “Smart Wake.” Slide the toggle to the “Off” position.
Now your Fitbit Inspire 2 will no longer use Smart Wake to wake you up.
Temporarily Snoozing Your Alarm
Sometimes, you might not want to turn off your alarm entirely, but just need a few more minutes of sleep. The Fitbit Inspire 2 lets you snooze your alarm easily:
1. Press the button: When your alarm goes off, press the button on your Fitbit Inspire 2 to snooze the alarm.
2. Snooze duration: The default snooze duration is 9 minutes. You can adjust this in the Fitbit app settings.
Resetting Your Fitbit Inspire 2

1. Open the Fitbit app: Launch the Fitbit app on your smartphone.
2. Navigate to your device: Tap on your profile picture in the top left corner, then select your Fitbit Inspire 2 from the list of devices.
3. Go to Settings: In the device settings, find the “Settings” option.

6. Confirm the reset: You’ll be asked to confirm the reset. Tap on “Erase” to proceed.
Your Fitbit Inspire 2 will restart, and all data and settings will be erased. You’ll need to set up your device again, including any alarms you want to use.
Avoiding Accidental Alarms
Sometimes, your Fitbit Inspire 2 might accidentally trigger an alarm. This can happen if you accidentally press the button or if the device is jostled. To avoid this, you can:
- Turn off the alarm sound: In the Fitbit app, you can disable the alarm sound. This will prevent any accidental alarms from disturbing you.
- Lock the screen: You can lock the screen on your Fitbit Inspire 2 to prevent accidental button presses. This can be done in the app settings.
